## Watch Power Tools in Action

See how ASP.NET Zero Power Tools generates working full-stack code in a few steps.

- **Pick a layout** - Start the entity wizard and choose a page template: DataTable, card view or master-detail.
- **Define the entity** - Add properties (strings, numbers, dates, GUIDs, enums) and set validation and UI behaviour for each one.
- **Wire up relationships** - Navigation properties become foreign keys, lookup dialogs, dropdowns and typeahead controls.
- **Generate** - Server and client code, tests, permissions, localization and EF migrations, written straight into your solution.

## Code Generation for Real Projects

ASP.NET Zero Power Tools is a cross-platform command-line tool that generates production-ready code for common application tasks. It helps you deliver faster while keeping the architecture clean and consistent.

- **From Domain to UI** - Generate entity, application service, DTO, mapping, migration and UI code in a single workflow.
- **Production-Ready Defaults** - Power Tools follows ASP.NET Zero conventions and creates working code you can run and extend immediately.
